As the Ruby json-schema library has been adding a number of active contributors lately, I've been considering moving the repository to an organization rather than keeping it under my personal account. I generally don't have the time to keep up with the library as much as I used to, and it seems kinda silly to keep it as a "personal" project. Moreover, organizations have much greater fine-grained access control, which would allow more options when adding new contributors and owners. 

Thoughts?

This makes sense to me. I've been concerned about increasing the maintenance burden for you: granting github access to new contributors, releasing new gems for all the stuff we've been merging, asking you to deal with CodeClimate, &c&c. I dunno how other groups deal with rubygems permissions, but that's probably the only additional complication.

Since json-schema is of course already claimed, would the org name be ruby-json-schema?

The org would probably be ruby-json-schema, yeah (but I'm open to other names). As for rubygems permissions, it actually looks to be really simple - all I need is an email address and I can grant permission to release new gems to that email address. Need to look into it a bit more, but that would be my preference.

Did someone already create the organisation?


Would be great to get that set up

I already registered it - going to go and set it up now. I've been away and busy with other stuff for the past couple of weeks, would like to clean this all up.

Awesome! travis seems to have detected the change on its own, unless someone else handled setting it back up. I just enabled CodeClimate on the new repo, as that one wasn't as instant.

I'll push a commit to update the gemspec and README badges and all that in a bit.
